We had an amazing trip
We had an absolutely amazing time on our safari! It was a fantastic few days from start to finish, and everything was so well organised.
A special mention has to go to our guide, Noel, who was absolutely brilliant. He had incredible knowledge of the wildlife and the area, and he was so accommodating throughout the trip. He let us take our time, see everything we wanted to see, and made sure we got the most out of every day. He was such a nice person and a real pleasure to be around.
We saw so many amazing animals and had some unforgettable experiences, including visiting the Maasai villages. It was an incredible experience that we will remember for a long time.
We would 100% recommend Somewhere in Africa to anyone looking to do a safari. They were fantastic from the planning stage right through to the end of the trip, and nothing was ever too much trouble. They were extremely accommodating and made the whole experience completely stress-free.
Thank you to the whole team, and especially Noel, for an unforgettable safari! š¦šš¦šā¤ļø

An unforgettable safari with an amazing team and an exceptional guide!
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Somewhere in Africa, and we are so happy that we chose them for our safari!
From the very beginning, the entire trip was planned and organized perfectly. The team was extremely helpful, responsive, and professional, and they answered every question we had quickly and patiently. We always felt that we were in good hands and that they genuinely cared about making our trip special.
The safari itself was incredible and we had such an enjoyable and unforgettable experience. Everything was well organized, and the team went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment.
A very special mention to our amazing driver and guide, Issah. He was absolutely perfect! He was professional, kind, patient, knowledgeable, and always did everything he could to make our safari as enjoyable as possible. He was also an excellent driver and guide, and his experience really made a difference. We honestly could not have asked for a better person to accompany us on our safari.
We are very grateful to the entire Somewhere in Africa team for an amazing experience and wonderful memories that we will never forget. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania ā you will be in excellent hands!
Thank you so much, Somewhere in Africa, and especially Issah, for an unforgettable safari! ā¤ļø

Interesting and fun experience
Booking the Safari with āSomewhere in Africaā was very easy and fast.
The person in charge of the bookings made sure we had plenty of offers to choose from, each their unique value.
Once booked they informed us with plenty details so we did not have to worry about any logistics.
The flights were booked with a good flight operator (the oneās in Tanzania arenāt all very good, nor reliable), like this we did not have to worry about flight delays or any cancellations.
The Safari itself was completely private and very comfortable.
Our driver āCharlesā had some interesting stories about the culture and the animals.
He did his very best to find all the animals we were looking for and gave us the absolute best value for our money.
We are very happy with the overall communication, logistics and experience āSomewhere in Africaā provided for us.
Very recommended to book with this company!

Breathtakingly beautiful
We booked our trip in February and immediately felt confident in the organization. We received our documents well in advance, allowing us to prepare thoroughly for "the trip of a lifetime."
The time finally came in September. Despite the vastly different culture in Africa, we were never left to fend for ourselves.
A driver was waiting for us at Kilimanjaro Airport; it felt right from the very start. The next day, the itinerary was explained to us in detail, and we met our tour guide. This was great, as it let us know what to expect and who would be sharing this adventure with us.
Thanks in no small part to our guide from Somewhere in Africa, we experienced many highlights during our trip.
Camping and visiting various tribes meant interacting with many locals and experiencing the real Africaāembracing a bit of risk and danger, perhaps, but creating unforgettable memories in the process. I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
Our guide, NoĆ«l, was incredibly knowledgeable about nature and animal behavior. We really hit it off, so he went out of his way to show us as much as possible of what we had come to see. We are truly grateful to him for that. I also want to mention the fantastic food we enjoyed during the week with Somewhere in Africa: it was healthy, local, delicious, varied, and nutritious. Our cook, Nico, turned every meal into a treatāthat certainly deserves a mention, too. High praise indeed for both our guide and our cook.
The final leg of the journeyāthe trip to Gombeāwas certainly another highlight. Here, too, we were very pleased with our guide, who did his utmost to ensure we had a great time; this ultimately led to us seeing a large group of chimpanzees, with plenty of time to take photos and simply enjoy their presence. We have great respect for the guidesāfor their knowledge, enthusiasm, confidence, and attentiveness. We felt the trip offered excellent value for money. We returned home with a suitcase full of unforgettable memories. We highly recommend traveling with Somewhere in Africa for an experience that goes beyond the standard itinerary; it was precisely those non-standard moments that were the absolute highlight.

Somewhere in Africa takes care of your own carefree dream trip!
A trip to Africa is not something you undertake lightly; it requires a great deal of preparationāvisas, clothing advice, and various other items you need to acquire. *Somewhere in Africa* provides excellent guidance throughout this process, and they are available to answer any questions you might have. You also remain in contact with the organization during the entire trip, which makes things much easier for you. All you have to do is enjoy your holiday and the experiences; they take care of all the arrangements, ensuring that any sudden changes to schedules or other details do not disrupt your trip. We had a list of things we wanted to see and do beforehandāthe Maasai tribe, the Hadzabe people, a safari, and a visit to Gombe National Park. We initially thought these couldn't be combined, but thanks to the organization, we were able to do everything we had dreamed of; everything is possible through consultation. All in all, it is a reliable and safe organizationāand while there is a price tag attached, it guarantees a well-organized, worry-free trip where you can simply enjoy yourself.

A really professional journey
we are so lucky to have Roger being our guide for this safari. He is so professional that takes us see many animals (many lions, cheetahs, leopards in Serengenti and rhinos in Nogorngor crate) in limited time and very patient for every watching. During the trip we talked about everything: animal, the masai people and development of Tanzania which deepen our understand of this impressive country. I Recommend SOMEWHERE IN AFRICA 100%.
The only issue is that the vehicle is not in very great condition, so the ride through Serengeti will be quite bumpy. But considering the company's relatively good price, I think it's fair.

Hands down the best safari ever, thanks to Somewhere in Africa and Charles's incredible guiding!
finding the right safari agency is the hardest part for the safari tour. I contacted almost more than 30 agencies, and I chose the somewhere in Africa.
and this is my best choice.
Nuhu who had connected me for itinerary is so nice. he didn't push me as the other agency, he answered for around 20 questions, made sure there were no misunderstandings about the itinerary. he is the first one who checked the lodge availability at the 1st itinerary. he worked so clear, fast and well communicated.
For our guide, Charles is the best guide ever. he is so smart, humble and thoughtful. we started game drive from Northern for the great migration, and we saw it around 4times during only 1and a half day. he drives so well, found the animals so fast, and knows about everything in the serengeti wild-life. he answered us every questions. he is also very passionate. when we were watching the leopard on the tree, it was hard to see because it was hiding in the leaves. Charles kept trying find a good position so all of us could watch the leopard soooo well. not for leopard but every moment he did his best for us. If i come back to serengeti I'd absolutely do this again with Charles.
Hope my review is helpful to all future visitors, don't hesitate and make a nice deal with this agency and have wonderful experience!!

A great travel agency that listens to your wishes
The communication was really excellent. There were a few changes due to flight schedule adjustments, and those were taken care of right awayānothing was too much trouble for them.
Our safari began the evening before the safari. Our guide, Noel, came to introduce himself and went over a few things before the safari started.
Like the time heād pick us up, but alsoāand most importantlyāwhat we shouldnāt forget, such as sunscreen, insect repellent, and a hat or something similar. The safari began the next day. He explained where weād start and where we were headed. It was a really wonderful trip. You could ask him anything, and he knew a little bit about everything. If he didnāt know something, heād look it up in his guidebook. If you saw something, you could just point it out, and heād stop to take pictures, etc. If you tell him what you want to see, heāll really go out of his way to find it. The accommodations were also well-organized, both at our main base and at all the locations during the safari.
The gluten-free diet that needed to be accommodated went very smoothly everywhere, and all the locations took it into account.
All the day trips, such as to the waterfall and to the city (Arusha), were also very well organized.
It was truly a vacation weāll never forget, and definitely worth the money.
Weād like to thank Allan, Coosje, and all the staff for this wonderful vacation. It was an unforgettable experience, thanks in part to them.

A reliable and professional operator for a truly tailor-made Safari
We had a wonderful mid-range safari experience in Tanzania with Somewhere in Africa and would definitely recommend them.
From the beginning, Eliakim helped us create a tailor-made itinerary based on our wishes and interests, including Tarangire, Northern Serengeti for the Great Migration, Central Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. Communication was clear and professional, and everything went smoothly throughout the trip.
The Great Migration was truly incredible and one of the highlights of our safari. We had the chance to see a lot of animals and this made us so happy!
Our driver-guide, Daudi, was very knowledgeable and spoke very good Italian. He shared many interesting insights about the animals and their behaviour and understood what we hoped to see, choosing suitable areas while always respecting park rules and wildlife.
We were also very happy with all the accommodations: fantastic locations, helpful staff, comfortable rooms and excellent food.
Overall, Somewhere in Africa proved to be a reliable and well-organized operator, with great flexibility and attention to our wishes. A special thank you to Eliakim and Daudi and the whole Team for a truly memorable safari!

Great combination of safari and cultural visits with locals
We (Dutch couple 67 and 69) enjoyed our time with Somewhere In Africa. The personnel was very friendly and knowledgable. During our trips we always felt safe. We spent most time with Amani. He is very capable in spotting animals and very patiƫnt explaining where we should look. Visits of Masaai (without typical jumping for tourists) and Hadzabe were Some highlights of our trip. We higly recommend Somewhere In Africa.
